My dad lost the battle, but wanted to thank...

[68converted]

Hey all, I just wanted to send a note for all those who took time out of their day to read and send help, either by PM or in coming over to offer a hand in helping to finish the 'Stang before he passed. Your kind words and prayers have helped me more than you can imagine. The car will be dedicated to the memory of my father (David G. smiled on us 1939-2006).

My dad passed back in 1994. One of the great memories I have of him is a photo of him at a car show sitting behing the wheel of my 87 LX with a big smile on his face. Hangs on my living room wall and makes me and a lot of other people smile everytime they see it. Celebrate you dads life and always enjoy the memories of the good times you shared together. God bless

My pops is only 48 but is already showing signs of failing health, 30 year smoker. I try to spend as much time as I can with him now and make the best of the time I have with him. I can't imagine how hard it must be to lose your dad but that's life I guess. My condolences to you and yours.

 

[Protowrxs]

Our prayers go out to you as well...

Almost every time I work on my Stang I remember my Dad and I spending hours and hours on it 30+ years ago.

Time does heal...

David,
My thoughts are with you and your family. Great way to help preserve his memory dedicating the car to him.

 

[68converted]

Thanks everybody. His health failed so quickly, that I wanted to spend my time with him instead of finishing. I am trying to balance family, company requirements, and lack of sleep. I did manage to wrap up the under dash wiring last week, fuel pump circuit the day before he passed, and the remaining engine harness yesterday. I am hoping to have the fuel lines, and trans cooler lines finished on Sunday. Maybe I can turn the key over next week.

A drive from Colorado to Massachusetts for an Memorial service the first week of July is the goal.

Thanks again for your prayers, kind words, and thoughts. You have proved again how a community is a stronger than any individual could ever be.:SNSign:
